I've been using Dove as my body soap for years now. I use it at home and take a bar with me when I travel. I typically use the original Dove bar, but my store was out, so I'm going to try the shea butter one.

TGIN Green Tea Super Moist Leave In Conditioner is a great lightweight moisturizer. I use it on my relaxed hair all year long. Sometimes just to add moisture to my hair between washes, and other times to add moisture when my hair is freshly washed. It doesn't leave any residue or weigh down my hair.

Thayers toners are a staple for me in my oily skin regimen. There are several Thayers toners to choose from, and I've used several of them over the last few years. The one I've been loving right now is the Lavender toner.

It gently hydrates my skin after washing. I haven't noticed any type of scent, so if there is one, it's not strong at all, which is nice. I can use this toner at night after removing my makeup or in the morning to help wake me up.

When my relaxed hair is feeling dry on my wash day, I will sometimes do what is called a pre-shampoo treatment or a pre-poo. Doing this hair treatment will add some moisture back to my hair before shampooing. To create the treatment, I mix together the Aussie 3 Minute Miracle Moist Deep Conditioner with a little Jamaican Black Castor Oil. My hair feels soft and hydrated after the treatment, and even more so after my hair has been washed and deep conditioned.

While I don't co-wash my relaxed hair anymore, it is a good way to refresh or wash hair between shampoo days and give the hair some extra boost of moisture. Two co-washes I would use if I were still doing this are the Camille Rose Sweet Ginger

Cleansing Rinse or the TGIN Quench 3-in-1 Co-wash Conditioner And Detangler.

Co-washes are really soft cleansers that gently cleanse the hair, but they don't always wash away all of the buildup, which is why they are good for a mid-week wash.

I got turned onto Jamaican Black Castor Oil a few years ago. I've bounced between the two brands, Mango & Lime and Sunny Isle. I haven't noticed any difference in them other than I think that Mango & Lime has a wider range of options.

I like to use this oil mainly on my scalp and mixed into a conditioner for a pre-shampoo treatment.

Last day for JCPenney's Black Friday early access sale. I found these 3/4 sleeve layered tops. I had several tops like these back in my high school and college days, so imagine my surprise as I saw many throughout the store. Are they making a comeback?

These are on sale during JCPenney's Black Friday early access sale, which ends tonight.

When I deep condition my relaxed hair, I like to use some heating element that helps to open my hair cuticles more and allow the deep conditioner to really penetrate my hair strands. I sometimes use my hair steamer and could use my hooded dryer. The problem is that both need to be plugged into an outlet, so I'm stuck in one place. With this microwavable heating cap, there is no cord, so I can do whatever I want.

This cap comes in several fun patterns. Tap to shop them on Etsy.

Been buying these yogurts as part of my quest to eat more protein. They are pretty good. A little sweeter than the yogurt I used to buy. This one tasted pretty close to an actual piece of cheesecake.

Wash day products and results. This wash day was about balancing moisture and protein.

I started with a pre-poo that was a deep conditioner mixed with Jamaican Black Castor oil.

The shower portion started with two moisturizing shampoos - one for each lather. Followed up with a medium protein treatment. My hair felt so soft and silky at this point.

I finished in the shower with a deep conditioner that I enhanced using my microwavable deep conditioning cap that’s not pictured here.

Out of the shower products were simpler, applying a leave-in conditioner and heat protectant before I dried my hair with my Shark FlexStyle.

During the week I twisted or braided my hair at night which gave me really soft waves. Love it!

I decided to use Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser in the mornings and evenings, when I'm not removing makeup, this fall and winter. The reason is that it's softer on my skin and adds additional moisture during the drier months.
